<p>The whale, believed to be the oldest living orca, is said to be around&nbsp;105 years old.</p>

<p>Researchers who first spotted her in 1971 recorded her age at 60. The&nbsp;margin of error is 12 years, meaning she could be a youthful 90.</p>

She and J27 spent more time out of the water than in it!&quot; The link includes multiple photos of her leaping from the water.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>If her age is correct, Granny was born in 1911, one year before the Titanic was launched. She has made it through two World Wars swimming in the Pacific when Pearl Harbour was attacked.</p>

<p><span style="line-height: 20.8px;">Female orcas typically live about 50 years&nbsp;but a rare few have been been known to reach 100.</span></p>
